I popped in on the site to see if they had opened the code.The project link at joindiaspora.com now takes you to zombo.com. I hope it’s a joke and not a vaporware indicator. I wonder what the hell they were on at Burning Man? Looks like Maxwell is taking credit for it, github is up.
I need to get some quick wireframes out the door. I was going to do them in Omnigraffle, but as someone I know and respect said, it kinda gets in the way. I’ll have to see if that holds true for Justinmind. They could certainly do with a faster server, 23 minutes for a 63M [...]

I registered over there today and looked through the listings. Here are a couple of things that I think would be good ideas: Add captcha to try and stop all the scripted autobids from Bulgaria.

… I was fooled. It looked like Windows might be the path of least resistance for a project. And, once again, burned. There’s three hours of my life I’ll never get back. Hello again, Ubuntu.

Episode #2 has me laughing so hard I almost suffocate. As a result, I’m temporarily insane and I just can’t help it. With my new-found skills, taught to me by Donnie Hoyle, I thought I’d get a jump on the iPad. Here are some wallpapers with a realistic ad campaign for the device. 1280×800

A buddy asked me this week about deploying a Rails app on Linux and my response was close to “life is like a box of chocolates…” Losing my Linux foo seems to be a side effect of becoming Windows stupid because of .NET and MSSQL at work. I try not to be a hater, but [...]
